Have you searched the CPAN archive yet? It should be the first place you go when searching for a module to do something.

If you do, you will find the PDF::Parse module listed on the first page.

Before you ask, I have never played with the module so I would go ahead and read it and see if it can help you.

Regards,

Jeff

I think CAM::PDF is better.

Ok.... there ya go. If that module seems more like what you need then I would say run with it.
